Equipment

  • 1 Blender

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • Juice of 1 orange
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • Juice of 1 small lemon
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • Grated ginger (to taste)
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp finely chopped fresh herbs (like flat-leaf parsley, basil, lemon basil, chives, etc.)

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl combine vinegar, orange juice, orange zest, lemon juice, mustard, honey, ginger and garlic, then vigorously whisk in olive oil and season with salt and pepper and herbs.
  • Note: If you want a creamy version of this vinaigrette (see the picture above), put all the ingredients (except the herbs, which you add in afterwards) into a high powered blender instead. It will eventually separate, so give it a good shake before using again.
  • Pour liberally over your favourite salad. Store in the refrigerator.
